@dagoulas83 Absolutely! It was kinda crazy what he did then. Today, all I can say is that we all make mistakes. Because no human being is perfect. Even such a great artist like Polanski.
fine,fine the scenes the lights,actors,the beautiful girl and the dance up to the stupid she fat that dance with hand up,fine,but Harrison you ever to try save the world and let the woman alone!! never let the girl down,please let the love not war,man!! enjoy this life
fine,fine the scenes the lights,actors,danceup to the stupid she fat that dance with hand up,fine,but Harrison you ever to try save the world and let the woman alone!! never let the girl down,please let the love not war,man!! thanks Polansky
Really enjoyed this movie and this scene in particular. Wish I could be transported back to that scene and change places with Harrison Ford. Would love to dance with that girl! She's lovely!!
harrison ford looked soooo akward in this scene, probably cuz he was so nervous about people trying to kill him and his wife and this girl is trying to make him dance LOL i forget her name but that girl he was with was HOT polanki is a lucky guy.
I just noticed a mistake in this scene. The man in the beige suit and striped tie is behind them dancing in the backgroud as they start to leave the dancefloor. When the camera changes looking in the direction they are heading he is there again dancing with the man they talk to sitting in the background. Still a great movie and great song.
I love Ford in this movie, he was so great with his subtlety. At this point in the film, he's on Cocaine, and the tone of the movie just switches to this bizarre kind of trip for him. This scene is like a living dream
I love this scene! ford's charakter seems so lost, all these worries on his mind, kinda' stiff - in contrast to the seductive music and sexy seigner. that mix it builds up a strange dynamic. good acting!
Why is this called 'Strange'...it's Libertango (I've seen that face before). And yes, Harrison Ford is crap...but he had a massive female following in the 80s and as long as you have that in this world, you're 'fantastic'!!!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Does Harrison Ford have any other expressions than the two or three we see on his face in this scene? Seriously, these are the same expressions he wears as Indiana Jones and in every other movie! This guy is one of the most overrated, overpaid actors ever.
13 year old? Probably needs something younger...say 11 or 12? But what the hell, a little bit of drugs to ease the child's inhibitions...and a sympathetic Europe to run and hide in...who couldn't support him???
I saw this movie some years ago on late night television. Did not catch the opening of the movie, so did not know the name of the movie, etc. I spent years trying to find out the name of this song. This particular scene blew me away. Nobody moves or dances like Emmanuelle. I never forgot these dance scene. Probably the most seductive scene that I have ever seen on screen. I can see why Polanski fell for her. She is simply awesome!
ay que feliz era cuando vi esta pelicula que Paraiso era para mi el Paris desconocido, aquel que amaba por bello y por literario....ahora el paraiso se ha perdido y las ilusiones van con el
yeah, harrison looks so lost. that's right. in fact, he's got his ass kicket and he tries to climb roofs like a completely loser. you have to watch the entire movie to understand, though. :)
Seigner is amazingly beautiful, that's why Polanski married her. The way she dances with those slinky cat moves, the way her midsection undulates. Vavavoom, I've never seen anyone dance like that before, totally amazing.
Now... the music, haunting, mysterious and sexy too. It fixes in perfectly.
I could never have asked for a sexier dance scene.
You should see her performance in "Bitter Moon"...sexy as she can only be. There is one particular scene where she dances to Brian Ferry's "Slave to love" with Kristin Scott-Thomas, it lasts only a few moments but it's excelent
OK, i just saw it, LOL, at the look on his face. She totally messed him up, but yes the dance was very sexy, she does some of the same shoulder moves.
I loved this movie and this dance scene...wonderful, so much going on. Anyone notice how in the last scene of the movie..Dr. and Mrs. Walker are sitting in the car and then a close up of the garbage truck as it loads the garbage and drives away. Hmmmm
Ya, it's a bit strange that he doesn't even appreciate her when she is so beautiful and sexy. Suppose it must be cos he was meant to be just too worried about finding his wife?
Mrs. Walker represents bourgeoise respectability and safety. Dr. Walker worked hard all his life to achieve that and when his wife goes missing it means he must question who and what he is and his purpose.
The girl represents the freedom from duty he has gave up and forgot long ago.
He finds his wife again but he loses the girl in the end. He cannot have both.
He will never know if wife was raped in captivity and she will never know if he made love to the Michelle or not.
What I find interesting is that you could make many movies about the same story.
While their parents are away, the teenage daughter is throwing a party and she is coming of age. Walker's son, Richard Junior is a kid probably living in his father's shadow. The married couple are trying to relive the romance of their youth.
Michelle is a troubled young model and prostitute and smuggler.
The Arab hoodlums are playing cat and mouse with the French/Israeli agents.
Pretentious. American has produced a plethora of talented filmmakers in the past century and set many trends in film in terms of direction and acting. And FYI, lightyears are a measure of distance, not time.
I think to be honest that both American and French cinema have had their high points and both have their drawbacks - the American movies often too "action packed" and the French movies can be pretentious - pretending to be better than they are.
Rachegotter are You able to thinking??? Polanski is from Poland and He is Polish so stop writing stupid things. (ok he was born in Paris but he has accepted citizenship status French in 1975 and He always repeat "I'm Polish")
Roman Polanski is French. He was born in Paris. His married to French actress Emmanuelle Seigner (the actress dancing in this video). And French movies are the best.
You can disagree. But you cannot claim everybody does. Thus, the statement is not wrong.
i know all that, but come on, french movies are not that brillant compared with american movies. However french cinema is really improving right now. By the way have you watched "bienvenue chez les chtis?"
OK. You and I have resolutely different opinions on what "a good movie" is. I like realism. You probably prefer aliens, big guns, explosions, unrealistic espionage stories, etc... By these standards, American cinema is more grandiose, I agree. But for realistic stories that focus on characters rather than on events, French movies are much better.
Oh, and no, I didn't watch "les ch'tis". To me, it's a disgrace to culture. Overrated stream of clichés for people who like unsubtle jokes...
wow, what a funny and ironic character. An other wrong statement about american movies, however I agree for les chtis but still it's funny, and I find quite snobish that it's for people who like unsubtle joke.
every country has their own pictures, there is nothing better than the "new hollywood" era in the 60s and 70s in the usa, but this was all influenced by immigrants from europe... and think of nouvelle vague in france, THIS is cinema and no 200mio dollar production with special effects...
That (the video's) is exactly the cut I saved from "Frantic" back around 2003 or so-- i.e. first time viewing the movie and hearing "Strange". Seems to be the best version; and, it's where the song fits perfectly.
Works both ways. That scene is nothing very special without that song; the song doesn't mean nearly so much without the memory of that scene.
I didn't know Harrison Ford speaks Italian that well.

Pretentious. American has produced a plethora of talented filmmakers in the past century and set many trends in film in terms of direction and acting. And FYI, lightyears are a measure of distance, not time.

I think to be honest that both American and French cinema have had their high points and both have their drawbacks - the American movies often too "action packed" and the French movies can be pretentious - pretending to be better than they are.

Rachegotter are You able to thinking??? Polanski is from Poland and He is Polish so stop writing stupid things. (ok he was born in Paris but he has accepted citizenship status French in 1975 and He always repeat "I'm Polish")

wrong statement

This has been flagged as spam show
Roman Polanski is French. He was born in Paris. His married to French actress Emmanuelle Seigner (the actress dancing in this video). And French movies are the best.
You can disagree. But you cannot claim everybody does. Thus, the statement is not wrong.

i know all that, but come on, french movies are not that brillant compared with american movies. However french cinema is really improving right now. By the way have you watched "bienvenue chez les chtis?"
peace

OK. You and I have resolutely different opinions on what "a good movie" is. I like realism. You probably prefer aliens, big guns, explosions, unrealistic espionage stories, etc... By these standards, American cinema is more grandiose, I agree. But for realistic stories that focus on characters rather than on events, French movies are much better.
Oh, and no, I didn't watch "les ch'tis". To me, it's a disgrace to culture. Overrated stream of clichés for people who like unsubtle jokes...

wow, what a funny and ironic character. An other wrong statement about american movies, however I agree for les chtis but still it's funny, and I find quite snobish that it's for people who like unsubtle joke.

every country has their own pictures, there is nothing better than the "new hollywood" era in the 60s and 70s in the usa, but this was all influenced by immigrants from europe... and think of nouvelle vague in france, THIS is cinema and no 200mio dollar production with special effects...

one of the best scenes in movie history

Definitely.
That (the video's) is exactly the cut I saved from "Frantic" back around 2003 or so-- i.e. first time viewing the movie and hearing "Strange". Seems to be the best version; and, it's where the song fits perfectly.
Works both ways. That scene is nothing very special without that song; the song doesn't mean nearly so much without the memory of that scene.
